SINCE the publication of Presi-
dent Cleveland's annual message to
Congress, all minor differences be-
tween the two great national par
ties seem to have been laid aside,
and the next presidential contest is
to be fought upon the policy of Pro
lection or Free Trade. The repub-
Iicans with Mr.. Blaine in the lead,
are generally for protection or high
tariff, and the democrats, with Mr..
Cleveland as standard bearer, favor
a tariff for revenue only with Incl
dental protection.

LEGITIMATE trade continues fair
ly active for the season, though en-
barrassed in some branches by the
fluctuations in speculative markets.
Speculation in products, after a few
DAYS of wild advance, has taken a
turn downward, as the natural re-
suit of enormous sales to realize.
With rapidly expanding currency,
money is generally easier than a
week ago, though rates are still high
at many points, and complaints of
slow collections do not diminish.
Agitation of the tariff question al
ready begins to cause revision OF
calculations for the future, in some
departments. The sharp decline in
real estate speculations and prices,
at some Southern and Western
points. tends to check developments
there, aud subjects investorstO some
financial strain.

lief that for some weeks there has

mand in January, when yearly div

Greedy on Alcohol.

Mr.. H. M. Stanley has given his en-
phatic testimony against the use of
alcohol in tropical climates. His wide
experience has taught him that the
danger and deadliness of alcoholic
stimulants in Africa can scarcely be
over-estimated. The testimony of Gen
eral A. w. Greedy against its use in
polar regions is as emphatic as that of
Mr.. Stanley regarding its effects in
tropical climates. Ia this respect Gen
eral Greely's article in the Forum is
especially valuable. He shows that the
men who first were attacked with
scurvy were those who were addicted
to the immoderate use of alcohol.
There is not' space here to quote the
General at length, but for the sake of
the thousands who foolishly resort to
intoXicants to warm them in winter
and cool them in summer, two short
extracts ought to be given. He says:
ut seems to me to follow from these
arctic experiences that the regular use
of spirits, even in moderation, under
conditions of great physical hardships,
continued and exhaustlng labor, or ex-
posure to severe cold, can not be too
strongly deprecated, and that when
used as a mental stimulus or as 9,
physical luxury they should be taken in
moderation"
He goes on to say that his contribu-
ton evil not have been written in
vain if it has the effect of correcting
among any class of laboring men the
mistaken idea that their capacity for
work is increased or. their powers of
endurance to exposure and cold en-.
HANGED by the use of alcohol. The
English navy never drinks while work =,
ing, and the Esquimaux and Chukches,
without alcohol, endure, unframed,
the. severest temperatures known to
man. "-jStGadard. 80

BACHELORS HALL.

Hurrah hprrah for Bachelors Hall;
The Queens away and L m monarch OF all:
don't have TO hang up my coat or my hat,
And when get lonely talk to the cat
come whea like, and go when choose,
The finest cigars help me scatter the blues;
Nobundles carry, and nothing buy;
There's no one to care about-only ''big ~
: reyel in widest confusion around;
There isn't thing III its place to be found;
Ny books and newspapers, they litter the
room
That hasn't for weeks seen the sight Of a
broom.
There's clothing or something on every chair;
MY beds never made, but it's little 1 care;
sleep like top, for there's no one TO call
take solid comfort in Bachelor Hall.
TO eat, when I'm home, on the back OF a plate;
I'm learning to cook but, alas confess
choose to go hungry than swallow the mess.
But Bachelors Hall, with its comfort and
quiet,
Is almost too spooky for regular diet;
NO children live in it to welcome their dad.
No supper is waiting, no wife-O, so gladl
No! Nothing but ghosts of the loved ones
away
Inhabit the tomb where alone I must stay,
Compelled to break silence by having chat
With my woeful companion, the strange act
ing cat.
o. gladly TIL yield my crown, scepter and all
The Kingly delights OF Bachelors Hall
To the Queen OF the Home when she comes
With her train
To wisely and lovingly over me reign.
